Dear Prof. Kuey,

Greetings,

Following my last letters regarding the case of Dr. Ayan , the Turkish psychiatrist, and that the next hearing of the trial against him will be on the 30th of December 2002. I am pleased to tell you that the whole issue was placed on the official WPA website which had some impact.

The WPA is very concerned about the matter and it will be greatly appreciated if representative of the Turkish society or our ZR Dr. Kuey to give help , support or attendance of his trial.
